About Me

I’m a MSR student in the Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from the University of Toronto, where I focused on computer vision and generative artificial intelligence (GenAI).

Previously, I had the opportunity to work with Prof. David Lindell on controllable image personalization at the DGP Lab, Prof. Rahul G. Krishnan on LLMs for healthcare at the Vector Institute.

In industry, I spent one year as a computer vision researcher at Noah’s Ark Lab, Huawei Canada, working with Dr. Juwei Lu on integrating 2D foundation models with 3D representations. Prior to that, I interned at JD.com’s CV Lab under Dr. Tao Mei, where I was recognized with the Star Intern award.

Outside of academia, I am passionate about golf and tennis. During the winter months, I find snowboarding a refreshing and exhilarating way to unwind while navigating snowy slopes.
